About this game

Mini Reaper

You remember a game and a story about its development from your childhood. A classic 3D platformer that, due to strict deadlines, had to be released in an unfinished state. "Mini Reaper," a charming little spooky game about filling in for the Grim Reaper's work while he went on vacation. Shortly after its unfinished release in 1999, the company Polysoft went under and disbanded completely. You thought the game, played by few and remembered by even fewer, was completely lost media.

But then...

One day, when once again searching for any mention of the game online, you finally find something! An anonymous user named 'face' posted the game's files to a sketchy looking forum. Thankfully, you have good old PCZ64 to emulate the game with.

Note: The "game emulator," and retro game company aspects of Mini Reaper are purely fictional, and for aesthetic purposes only.
